One should recognise that despite all the criticism of the socialist mode of governance it is because of the investments made by the Govt. that we have the infrastructure and have had the training ground for our manpower. If we had invited foreign capital ab initio or relied on our blinkered and short sighted private sector, India would by now have been colonised and backward once again. I am a firm believer in the benefits of free enterprise and capitalism but also realise that the public sector has kickstarted the progress made by this country. Let us therefore be a little less harsh on them.
